Congrats on the Grand Opening to all involved, new place is fantastic!


Thought I would share a little story about my weekend… I was driving a new vehicle back from Saskatoon this saturday when the winds starting blowing around 100km/h. We were driving on a back road were we had not seen another vehicle for over an hour when we came up to a Semi with two trailers that have flipped on its side in the ditch. There were 2 men and their dogs hurt and stuck in the cab of the truck. I jumped on top and opened the door to help them out. The hard part was having to pull the one guy out with only one arm (he was badly injured on his one shoulder) Because of my crossfit training that I have been doing for just over a year I was able to pull a 200lb+ guy with one arm straight up and out of the truck.

This is a real world situation which crossfit has made a major difference. I was able to pretty much deadlift 2 men and 2 dogs out which would have been pretty much impossible if I hadnt trained in crossfit.


Hey Jacob,

What an inspirational story and you could not have put it better. Crossfit prepares us for those real world situations where when you need to dig deep we have the capacity to do so. Thanks for sharing.


Congratulations on the new facility…looking forward to checking it out.

Okay guys, trying to log-out — it ain’t working so good! Had to change my password and thought my second major challenge of the day was done….


Alright – have tried everything I can think of, including turning computer right off, power right off, kicking the computer. Any computer whizzes out there — please log me off!

21:40 as rx’d. Pushups were a killer as usual.


23:23. Did ball slams with soccer ball and used red elastic band to assist pull-ups. I hadn’t done a crossfit workout in a while so I should remember that one tomorrow (I agree the push-ups was the hardest part).
